Absent
work:
If you are
absent, it is your responsibility to find out what material was
covered. I will have a calendar
posted in class of all the work done each day. You should always check this
first. Check the daily folders
that are below the calendar to find any worksheets missed. If you missed notes, you may need to
borrow someones and copy them. Any assignments missed must be turned
in in a timely manner according to school
policy.
Grading:
Will be based
on total points.
Daily work: given as needed
Quizzes: will be given over class notes
– any notes taken on notebook paper may be used. (No books or worksheets may be
used) These are usually 10
questions and worth 100 points.
Tests: Each test grade will count twice
Projects: will be given throughout the course
and points will vary depending on length and difficulty of the project
In Class
Folder: graded as
needed. Any bell work and all graded papers will
be kept in the folder. This
folder will stay in the classroom in the assigned location.
Final Exam: This will be a cululative
exam. This grade will count
three times.
Late
Work:
You will receive 3 late passes for daily work for
the semester. The pass must be
attached to the late work and it can be turned in no later than 2 days late. You will receive full credit for this
work. No other late work will
be accepted. All projects
will be due on their due date – no exceptions. Any unused late passes may be turned
in at the end of the semester for 5 bonus points each on the final exam.
